I recall liking Jicky very much and didn't understand the comments about civet being so off-putting. I think its actually a clean, smooth fragrance. Does it still come in the tin can? Where is the best place to buy Guerlains; from the boutique?

Pulled the trigger on Guerlain Vetiver from the boutique. I've also got samples of Heritage and Imperial coming with it.

Re: Introduce me to Guerlain

Among their more accessible "male" offerings I *like* but don´t love Habit Rouge and Vetiver, but I find them totally striking quality wise. I´m just not in the mood for these two that often. Heritage I find cold and bland, and I don´t like the last years modern mainstream releases.

Some masculines that I DO love are Mouchoir de Monsieur, Dandy and Chamade pour Homme - unfortunately they are a bit harder to come by.

But there are so many more frags to explore in the "female" section. Recently I have come to finally love and wear Shalimar; Mitsouko and l´Heure Bleue are masterpieces too, and please try Vol de Nuit!

There are also some nice stuff in the more excusive modern lines: Rose Barbare, Bois de Armenie, Tonka Imperiale come to mind. And the new take on LHB: l`Heure de Nuit!

Re: Introduce me to Guerlain

Very nice suggestions and I hope to work my way through the house in time. I've sample Mitsuoko and LHB, I find the quality very high and would wear them when dressed up perhaps. I chose Vetiver because its something neutral and can also be worn to the gym with no problems. I've been very curious about Chamade and Vol de Nuit, but I didn't think to ask for samples. My how could I have made that mistake?
